I am looking at sleeve gastrectomy being done but wanting to learn more about the good and bad sides from people who have had it. A sleeve seems the best for me and my lifestyle. I am a cattle farmer and out working daily. One of my concerns is drinking enough water. in the heat of the summer I will drink up to 3 gal a day

Hi, @dirtco, and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect.

That is a lot of water you drink in the summer, but it makes sense if you're outside a lot.

I'd like to introduce you to others who may have some good and bad sides to report from having a sleeve gastrectomy or from watching someone close to them undergo this procedure. Please meet @ezas123 @deggerah @aliali @befarmer @grandmar @elkcg @wr61 @cntrlcoastgirl. I'd also love for you to meet @roch.

Wondering if you'd share more about what you've discovered about how the sleeve seems best for your lifestyle?
